For the past three months I've left domaining behind and joined the corporate world. Coincidentally, this hiatus has really helped me refocus on where I want Nomzo to go, and who I want to work with, clients and partners.
In March I started working as a web developer / SEO for a recruitment company in London.
Blogging has been put on hold for a while as business is the #1 priority at Nomzo. Some good news to share – We've recently had our 2nd biggest domain sale ever. Coming only a week after Ron Beckstrom touted .net to be worthless (April foolsurth – he didn't really), we went and sold a
Nomzo has just finished the design and development of CoreChefs.com, a website from COREcruitment Ltd, a hospitality and leisure recruitment agency in London.

The article focuses mostly on design, but if you're the owner of a geo domain you can gain an insight in to the functionality and structure employed to bring life (and revenue) to the your domain
Browsing through Twitter I stumbled across the sale of an established web design blog. The site has a lot going for it – decent traffic, PageRank 5, and a small amount of revenue. The main thing that stood out was that it is underachieving.
Overview
The site itself is http://www.webdesignerhelp.co.uk. It has strong foundations with a
Developing domains in to full-fledged websites and businesses is one of the most rewarding aspects of domaining. If you're not familiar with development, head on over to our domain development page, which details the design and development process.

Following on from our earlier blog post about good domainers registering domain names to forward to charity websites in order to support the victims of the Hiati earthquake disaster. Google has registered the domain name HaitiEarthquake.com.

Very, very rarely will Nomzo.com go offline and you're greeted by an error page. One of those pull-your-hair-out moments happened earlier today as we were a little overexhuberant upgrading multiple WordPress plugins across our network of sites, all at the same time.

January has seen an influx of offers for domains showcased in the Nomzo domain showcase. Nearly all of the offers have been turned down. The reasons are not always as simple as the offer was not substantial enough, though admittedly on many occassions that is the case. Other reasons include issues such as insuring the
If you're not familiar with DNForum.com, it's the most professional domain forum out there. Paid membership insures members take the domain industry seriously. Closely followed by NamePros, which is friendlier for inexperienced domainers. It was recently announced that the other big domain forum, domainstate.com, is up for sale by the owners.

Ron Jackson does a tremendous job over at DNJournal of compilling all of the major (publicly known) domain sales each month. November's summary is very promising in terms of big sales and volume of big sales. Still, overall there were some absolute bargains snapped up by savvy investors. Personal favourite was FridayNight.com for $4,000 sold...

It's fantastic when big organisations talk about domain names! The BBC has the article in the main section of their news today about the forthcoming changes to allow IDNs in non-latin script. Instead of using ‘domain names' in the title, to help those unfamiliar with the domains and our industry, they use the term ‘internet...
In recent weeks there's been an abundance of complaints on the two main domain forums, NamePros and DNForum, about the performance of Moniker. Moniker is reputed to be safest registrar, with claims that they have never had a domain successfully stolen.

Thank you to Serge Saporta for completing the purchase of PokerTournois.com from Nomzo. ‘Poker Tournois' translates from French to English as ‘Poker Tournaments'. Complimenting their exisiting poker websites, PokerTournois.com will open new avenues to a greater global audience for this ambitious enterprise.
Just a heads up that Sedo's 1 and 2 character .de auctions are ending today. From my understanding, being the winning bidder does not guarantee you will become the owner of the domain. Ownership depends on one of Sedo's partners securing the domain.
Thank you and congratulations to Ron Giles of Zeald.com on the recent purchase of website-consultant.com from Nomzo. A solid long-tailed keyword domain, where the hyphen improves and clarifies the brand name.

The norm in the domain market is to entertain offers for domains instead of stating a fixed price. They are numerous reasons for this, the most evident being that the seller does not want to restrict the amount of money to be made from a sale. There is also the issue of scarying a way
Over the past few weeks the domain market has seen a number of 7-figure sales of one-word generic .com domain names. Namely Ticket.com was sold by BuyDomains for $1,500,000. This icing on the cake is the news that Insure.com has just sold for $16,000,000 (source: ElliotsBlog.com).

After blogging last week about the sale of Hotel-Reservation.com for six figures, there have been more impressive sales of domains which include hyphens. The biggest (publically known) sale this week was produced by Sedo, the domain was risk-consulting.com and the price tag a cool $9,500. Backing that up was an interesting sale of add-articles.com ...
There's been a lot of nattering amongst domainers after Rick Schwartz posted on his blog that his Adsense account had been shut down, the reason given was that Google is on a witch hunt against minisites. 50 blog posts and 500 comments later, people suddenly opened their eyes to the possibility that these minisites were
Hotel-Reservation.com was sold via Sedo for ?142,800. To back up that hyphenated domain sale was another, Live-Odds.com went for ?8,000. Both of these domains relate to massive markets and it should give a confidence boost to other hyphenated domains.
Browsing through the latest Afternic sales this one popped out, E-MT.com for $3,703. It bodes well for those who have invested in L-LL domains. The domain has no PR or Alexa ranking, and there's not a website attached, so the new owners have spent the money solely on the brandability of the name.
If you regularly follow the latest ongoings in the domain world, you are probably familiar with some domain blogs, forums and domain news websites. These sites are great parameters to measure the health of your domain portfolio. For instance, DNJournal is a top resource with which you can compare the latest sales to similar domains
Last week we mentioned Sedo's new price suggestion tool and it's inaccuracy. Well, truth to be told, it's not really inaccurate! You see, value is not set in stone. There was no thunderbolt and it was not handed down by God.
Domain value is determined by many factors. The two main being the seller's asking
Sedo has rolled a new feature whereby domain owners can get price suggestions for their domains. The service is completely free, though it can take a few hours to get your appraisal returned.
As with most auto-appraisal software it's not very accurate. However, it's good fun and a chance to re-evaluate your domain portfolio.
News is spreading fast of numerous high-end domains being stolen from a well-known domainer on NamePros and DNForum. The stolen domains include an LLL.com, MAJ.com. The methodology of the domain thief seems to have been to hijack the person's hotmail email address and then gain access to his domain registrar account.
